‘Time’ Director Garrett Bradley on Telling Fox Rich’s Story
Jazz Tangcay Artisans EditorIn “Time,” an awards contender in the documentary feature race, director Garrett Bradley follows the story of Fox Rich, an author, abolitionist and mother who spend two decades fighting for her husband Robert Richardson’s release from prison.As Bradley was piecing Rich’s story together, she learned Rich had 100 hours of family footage. That footage would serve as the missing piece of the puzzle to tell the compelling story and would turn the short film into a feature-length story.Editor Gabe Rhodes helped Bradley seamlessly tell a story through that time, straddling between past and present as she highlights not only Rich’s fight, but captures the elements of daily life.
